Happy Tails
"We lost our beloved boxer in July, and our other dog was missing her play buddy.We wanted our 4-year-old son to grow up with a dog. We met Millie, now Pearl (like the Black Pearl) and she fits perfectly in our family. She was very shy at the beginning in our meet and greet, but the second she got to our 4-year-old son she was all love and kisses, and we knew she was meant for our family."
